Which battery temperature sensor do I use

I’m moving through my Victron instal with AGM batteries. I’ve a temperature sensor with the Cerbo and one with the multiplus. Do I fit them both or is there some setup that I need to do?

Hi @Rupez1,

depends on what you want to measure. If you want to measure battery temp, one temperature sensor is enough. Use the one coming with the MultiPlus and plug it into the Cerbo GX I/O ports as well as to the battery. Enable DVCC in the Cerbo GX settings and then enable STS (Share Temperature Sense). This will share temperature also with the MultiPlus.
